Merv – upon returning to the carpark and finding that some prat has keyed his beloved Jag.
.... before the incident ....
Bugger ME !
How many are my foes who with keychain fob
Come forth and scratch my trusted ride
And steal they next, my loved bride ?
But you, our Vinh Ordinaire Rouge
And Jail too, I beseech to remove your
Bronzed arses from the beach and go forth.
Smote these scoundrels and break their teeth
Wield with displeasure the justice sword
And the open bar tab shall be your reward.
Window Dresser's Arms, Pig & Whistle 
Nice jag…

Somehow I always saw Merve as a MkII 340 driver rather than the E Type. If I’d known he had an E I would have curried his favour a little more on the chance I might get a drive.
You’ll recall, I’m sure, that Merve was most complimentary about my Sovereign at that first awkward meeting with him and his Purdey that day I first dropped into the Pigs for a beer and some of Granny’s wedges.
I’ve had to get rid of the Sov. Too, too, too difficult to maintain one’s stance a a green warrior when the V12 car you drive consumes enough petrol for a fleet of hybrids to run the rest of their lives. And that’s just getting up to the shops.
When you look up the origin and meaning of the expression “a fool and his money…” you find a picture of me and that Sovereign.

Oops. The E-type is his ‘other’ Jag, while the MkII is in for repairs 🙂
Sorry to hear about the Sov, Waz. At least it consumes less fuel than say a Harrier Jump Jet.
I’m hovering on the edge of getting my Duke Pantah 500 back on the road. New article for the Pig’s impending.
Crowded pic that one of fools and their money 🙂

I think you’ll find “university tests” have shown that the Harrier gets better highway miles, though around town the Harrier and the Sov are about par.

That car, my, how posh
Must have cost some dosh
Those keyed up freaks
just smash their teeth
Or better still, inflict real pain
a thrashing with the bicycle chain

I’d like to see the car after the incident 🙂
I have been madly trying to empty the garage of superfluous stuff…sick and tired of having to make decisions about what to keep and what not…
In the meantime the car is parked in our visitors spot and getting covered in bird-poo, the huge gum next to it is full baby birds , not toilet trained by looks of it , or maybe they just think our Holden Astra is their loo…

Thoughtful patrons have courteously not made any causative link between the make of car and its objectification by avian friends. Well done petrol heads !

Open bar tab Eh?
So if I bring Merve a couple of broken teeth, I get an open bar tab? Is that right?
(Thinks: I wonder what they do with the rubbish down at Al’s All Night Orthodontary and Gin Joint?)

Stay tuned for Pig’s Psalm 4 (with clarification….. I dunno, the faithful are so literal sometimes, isn’t they, Waz ?)
